Personal Narrative: A Career As A Career

I took an Anatomy class my Junior year, and I really liked it. I had always maintained an A in the class. It was very fascinating learning about the body. There are so many things that I didn’t even know and this got me more interested in obtaining a career in the medical field. When I was younger, I had always wanted to be a doctor. When I entered high school , I sort of changed my mind. I was doubting in become a doctor because it was going to take to many years. I wasn't sure if it was going to be worth it but now I am. This year I decided to take a medical terminology class and a medical assistant front office class. I'm so happy that I decided to take them because now I know for sure I want to study in the medical field . These subjects

Throughout high school, I continuously explored a wide variety of courses in an attempt to figure out what career path I may want to pursue. As senior year drew closer, the business field became more enticing. Furthermore, my aspirations were significantly impacted on the evening of September 14, 2016. I woke up that day and left for school as if it were any other day. After school, I drove to the softball field because we had a game and it just so happened to be Senior Night: the last home game. When it came time for my first at bat, I stepped up to the plate and hit a line drive between the first and second basemen, successfully making it to first base. The next player up to bat hit a double; I rounded second and sprinted for third. I clearly remember my coach kneeling on the ground to signal me to slide into third base. For some unknown reason, I hesitated and slid too late. I knew it was a bad slide, but I was focusing on whether or not I was safe. Then reality set in, I was safe, but I was not physically capable of standing up.

Ask someone, and chances are, they’ll argue that health comes first. Doctors say it, parents repeat it, media promotes it, but in actuality, not many of those who suggest making health a priority can truly say that they’ve never jeopardized their health, whether that be through something as small as skimping on sleep or as big as stressing themselves out, for their job. While some might not consider it one, maintaining a certain BMI is another health benefit that goes neglected, especially in modeling, a career that carries the stigma of only consisting of starving girls who need to “eat a burger”. Luckily, I never had to worry about my weight mainly because I danced 22 hours a week, something I could maintain in middle school only because I was homeschooled. Once I started high school, however, I found it hard to stick to this rigorous schedule, so it wasn’t long

I have come across many situation where I have had to compromise to resolve my issues. I am a cadet major in the United High School AFJROTC and was placed in a leadership position as the chief of staff. That means I help lead about 200 cadets toward common goal that is to teach them life skill that will produce better citizens. I work alongside the Group Commander and Deputy who also assist in running the corps. Our instructor often gives us many tasks to better our communication and leadership skills. Many of these tasks require us to work together as a team, but of course working together as a team doesn’t always come easy. One of the biggest challenges that I have come across so far was preparing for awards night. Awards night is a graduation for all the cadets where they receive ribbons to account for all their accomplishments

Healthcare industry is abroad topic, complex and diverse overall. I was not sure about my college major to pursue until my second year in college. My decision came to healthcare administration and policy when it came to my semester academic advising with my advisor at that time. I do not have family members or relatives directly related in the medical field but it was always an interest topic for me. Ultimately I heavily weighted on the healthcare field as my degree of studies and declared my major in health administration and health care policy.

As you grow older you realize that you will never learn nothing that should taken for granted. Is all valuable.

In this project Ms. Steuart assigned a project where the class was able to pick a career, house, and a car that best fitted them. We were required to buy a house and a car that we could afford with the income of our job. The house was to be at least $200,000 or more, but with the job that I got there was some complications. We were able to choose any car we wanted, but it had to be brand new.

I’ve never been the type of person who was able to envision where they were going to be in the future. Quite frankly, it’s one of my biggest weaknesses (man, I really hope no potential employers are reading this). I guess I just always wanted to wait and see where life would eventually lead me. While success is important to me, I never wanted to take a second thought of how exactly I was going to get there. I've always been this way. So when the Leadership Institute started, I honestly wasn't expecting to get much out of it. Some extra money and some job experience. That's it. Thats really all I thought I was getting into.

April 29, 2015 is the day I decided to trade my labcoat dreams for a dream with a gown and a stage. In the first 17 years of my life, I never considered to pursue a career in music, let alone opera. I had this mindset that immigrants go to the U.S. to become doctors, lawyers, engineers, but never artists, dancers, or musicians. It was a privileged dream. I was granted the privilege of taking piano lessons since my parents saw its disciplinary benefits. As I was participating in my school choir and in church choir, my piano teacher, Miss Noto, suggested that I take voice lessons as well. I did not find myself a particularly talented singer until I was the only one in my county to be accepted into the All National Honor Choir. In my last music festival, my adjudicator asked me which conservatories I applied to and I told her zero because I was going to be an Otolaryngologist. Miss Noto, who was my accompanist at the time, later told me how surprised she was that I was not going to pursue music after high school. I never imagined that one’s hobbies could translate to a career. Then I thought, why not?

My career choices have bounced from veterinary school to becoming a teacher and possibly stopping at film and drama. Thanks to countless years of binge-watching anything from comedies, action and horror, I’ve become fascinated and infatuated with the idea of film-making and acting and what goes into the process. From scriptwriting to filming on set and final product of a full-length movie, I love it all. Though the process is long and tedious to be successful, it still has my attention and possibly has me pursuing a career in filming. I grew up in a family of hard-working and dedicated people. Strictly because somebody discourages doesn’t mean you can’t get back up and keep trying. I was also told that if I my nose to the grindstone I will be rewarded for my work, no matter how insignificant it may be.

“Everybody has a Helene Tucker” By dick Gregory in Shame. When I was younger, all I ever wanted to be was a chef; however, as I got older, my career ideas changed drastically. I went through a few other stages before finally discovering that what I truly aspired to be was anything in the field of Medicine. My career choice as a Registered Nurse symbolizes all that I am: my abstraction, my motivation, and my passion.

In the third grade, I already had my life planned out; I just knew that I was going to be a movie star when I grew up. By the time I entered high school, this fantasy had long since been forgotten and reality stood in its’ place. I was clueless. I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, much less when I graduated from high school. So I did what every recent grad is expected to do, I enrolled in college. My college career began the fall semester immediately following graduation at Trident Technical College in North Charleston, SC; major

I thought she was crazy because I'm pretty sure that Cinna didn't want to see her naked. And, its disturbing to even read that she considered being naked in a room with Cinna. If I was her I would keep all of my private part hidden to everybody including Cinna. But after all he walked in her naked and looked at her body they were both quiet. Cinna took Katniss to dinner so he will tell her everything about Career Tribute and the people that will be designing Peeta.

I have been trained to become a chemist since the first year of my high school. This is a challenging career, requiring analytical thinking, attention to details, and adaptability. It is also a well-paying and promising career. However, chemistry is not what I have always dreamt of doing the rest of my life. As someone who is concerned about the development of sub-Saharan Africa, I came to a conclusion that what this region needs is not only scientists but also people who know and understand leadership and international affairs. In this paper, I compare my strengths and abilities to the qualities that one should have in order to excel as a chemist and a diplomat.

A career autobiography has to probably be one of the most interesting and thoughtful essays I’ve had to write so far. I am seventeen years old and am attending my first semester in college. I look forward to getting good grades, opening my mind to new things, and eventually graduating college. However, I have absolutely no idea what I want to be doing in the future. My indecisiveness is at such a high level that I probably change my future career every other day. At this point in life, my family, advisors, and professors are telling me that I don’t need to know what I want to be doing for a living, in the future, yet, I feel that I should know. I don’t want to be wasting my time and taking unnecessary classes. The thoughts about my “future career” leave me to be extremely indecisive and nervous, at times. I just hope, like people have told me, that “It comes to me."
